Alex Alley

From Boat to Boardroom

British Round the World Yachtsman and co author of Boat to Boardroom, Alex Alley is also an Adventure Psychology practitioner. As well as having eight sailing world records, in 2019 he sailed 14,500 miles and spent 75 days alone at sea whilst trying to break another world record, this time non-stop around the world.

Whilst still actively sailing, Alex is also a Founder and Principle Associate of Adventure Psychology – helping businesses and individuals succeed in challenging and uncertain times. Bringing a lifetime of experiences in not only surviving but thriving in conditions most could never imagine, he uses the powerful analogy of yacht racing and other extreme worlds to bring the lessons to life – embedding them deeper and for longer.
